ROUSSEAU'S SHYNESS.
An Experience the Composer Had In
Country Inn.
On one occasion Rousseau composed
an opera, which was performed be
fore King Louis XV. and met with
the royal approval. The king sent for
liim, and if he had put in an appear
ance he would probably have obtained
pension. He was. however, of a re
tiring disposition and could not bring
himself to face the court. To bis
friends he gave as a reason his repub
lican opinions, but his real reason was
his shyness.
Accordingly he fled from the court
and sought the privacy of a country
inn. While he was there a man came
in who began telling the company
that he was the celebrated Rousseau
and proceeded to give an account of
the opera, which, he said, bad been
performed before the king with great
success.
Most men in Rousseau's position
would have felt nothing but contempt
for the impostor, but this extraordina
ry man felt only pity and shame. "I
trembled and blushed so," he tells us
In his "Confessions," "for fear the
man should be found out that it
might have been thought that I was
the impostor." Ue was afraid that
somebody might come in who knew
him and expose the pretender. At last
he could bear it no longer and slipped
out unobserved.
Very few people would treat an
impostor like that. Westminster Ga

of the Antarctic Act.
"The resemblance of pengiuns to
human beings Is always noticed," says
Lieutenant G. H. Shackletou in his
book, "The Ileurt of the Antarctic."
"This Is partly due to the habit of
walking erect. But there are truly a
great many human traits about them.
They are the civilized natives of these
regions, and their civilization, If much
simpler than ours, is in some respects
higher and more worthy of the name."
Of two of the photographs that appear
In the book the following remarks are
made:
"An emperor penguin, meeting an
emperor or men or dogs, bows gravely
till his beak is almost touching his
breast. Keeping his head bowed, ho
makes a long speech in a muttering
manner, short sounds following in
groups of four or Ave. Having finish
ed the speech, the head" is kept bowed
a few seconds for politeness sake.
Then it is raised, and he describes
with his bill as large a circle as the
points of his neck will allow. If you
have not comprehended he tries again.
Meantime his followers are apt to get
Impatient. They are sure he Is act
ing incorrectly. Then another male
will waddle forward, elbow the first
aside and repeat the ceremony. Both
emperors and adelies move, when the
surface is suitable, by tobogganing."
Wild British Cattle.
The wild cattle of Great Britain
have become one of the curiosltes of
the bovine race in England. There
are very few herds of them remaining,
and most of these are diminishing
from a very natural cause. Of course
they are confined in parks and are
Jealously guarded from any admixture
of alien blood. They are as wild as
buffaloes and are treated in the same
way ns deer. In color they are white,
with red ears, and historians assert
that they had a large share In the evo
lution of the Shorthorn as it is known
today. It is certain that the color
mentioned very often crops up quite
unexpectedly in our pedigree herds.
They will probably become extinct in
a few years owing to the extreme diffi
culty of procuring sires unrelated to
the herds and yet of the samo breed.

The Scented Court.
The rage for perfumes reached its
height during the reign of Louis XV.
Throughout the continent his court
was known as the "scented court" It
was then the custom when giving a
large entertainment for the hostess to
inform her guests what particular odor
she would use for perfuming her
rooms, and each guest would use that
odor In making her toilet. At court a
different perfume was used for each
day of the week. Much more attention
was paid to the use of the perfume
than to soap and water, and cleanli
ness was not numbered among the vir
tues of that age.
How She Escaped.
Pauline, who had been attending
school for almost two weeks, was tell
ing of the misbehavior of some of her
little classmates. At her mother's;
question as to whether it bad ever
been necessary for the teacher to
speak to her Pauline answered quick
ly, "Oh, no, mamma." Then, "She had
to speak to all the class but me this
afternoon." "Why, what did she say?"
"Oh. she said, 'Now, children, we'll all
wait until Pauline is in order." " Dft

"And you didn't hear of it?" inquired
Mrs. Gabble.
"Not one word."

heard of his triumphant progrij and
learned that he bad reached their
frontier they became much alarmed.
The emperor called a council of his
generals and mandarins, and upon thu
advico of a crafty old mandarin tho
following strategom was carried out:
A largo ship was loaded with rusty
nails, trees were planted on the deck,
the vessel was manned by a numerous
crew of old men and dispatched to the
rajah's capital. When It arrived the
most wonderful part of I ho story Is
that it did arrive -tho rajah sent an
officer to ask how long it had taken
the vessel to make the trip from China.
Tho Chinamen answered that they had
all been young men when they set sail
anil that on the voyage they had plant
ed tho seeds from which the great
trees had grown. In corroboration of
their story they pointed to the rusty
nails which, they said, had been stout
Iron bars as thick as a man's arm when
they started. "You can see," they
concluded, "that China must be a very
long distance away."
Tho rajah was so much Impressed
by these plausible arguments that he
concluded he would not live long
enough to reach China and abandoned
his projected invasion,
SNEEZING.
It Must Have Been a Violent Operation
Before Jacob's Tims.
We frequently hear tho expression
"God bless you!" uttered after some
one has sneezed. The' expression, If
we can believe Clodd In his "Child
hood of tho World," dates back to the
tlmo of Jacob. We are told in Jewish
literature that previous to his time
men sneezed but once In a lifetime
aud that was the end of them, for the
shock slew them. Jacob prevailed in
prayer aud had tho fatality set aside
on tho condition that among all the
nations a sneeze should be hallowed
by the words "tiod bless you!" In tho
"Jataka," one of tho books of tho
Buddhist Scriptures, wo read that the
expression was, "May tho blessed Lord
allow you to live!"
Buddha on ono occasion while
preaching to his disciples happened to
sneeze. Tho priests gavo vent to tho
exclamation, and Buddha lectured
them for Interrupting his discourse.
"If when a person sneezes," ho ask
ed, "and you say, 'May ho live,' will
ho live the lottger?"
"Certainly not!" cried the priests.
"Aud if you do not say It will ho
die any the sooner?"
"Certainly not!" was the reply.
"Then," said Buddha, "from this
time forth If any one sneeze and a
priest says 'May you live' he shall bo
guilty of a transgression." London
Spectator.
The Kind Caddie.
"Once In a game," laid tho golfer,
'I had the good fortune to bo six
holes up on my opponent by the time
the elgth hole was reached. At the
eighth green something went wrong
with our reckoning of tho strokes,
and I claimed that I had won that
hole, too, while my opponent claimed
that It was halved. After a mild dis
pute I yielded.
"But as I moved on with my caddlo
I couldn't help grumbling:
" 'Well, you know, Joseph, 1 gave in.
But I still think I won that holo afler
all.'
"The boy, with a frown, turned

bated by Emerson. Explosions of It,
he says, should be under strict control,
aud he quotes -approvingly the saying
of Lord Chesterfield, "I am sure that
since I had the use of my reason no hu
man being has ever heard me laugh."
Hut Emerson is not altogether consist
ent In this matter, for, whereas In ono
passage he refers to laughter us a
"contemptible squeal of joy," in an
other It becomes a "pleasant spasm,"
and he gratefully acknowledges "the
rest aud refreshment we get from the
shaking of the sides." Moreover, he
admits that "to sue a man In a high
wind run after his hat is always droll."
Presumably If the man Is bald ami the
road Is muddy even Chesterfield might
be led to emit a contemptible squeal.
